’This book is very interesting and provides a valuable contribution
to the scholarship on competition law in developing countries.
Policymakers and lawyers involved in these fields will gain
perspective about the benefits and problems related to the
experiences presented in this work.’
*Andrés Palacios Lleras, World Competition*
This wonderful volume offers a timely and important look at
competition policy where it is changing the most - developing
countries pursuing regional agreements. It provides superb
analytical discussions of the impact of regional competition policy
integration, why developing states have pursued this strategy, and
the extent to which it is meeting their needs. The editors have
assembled a superb roster of experts, so it is not a surprise that
the book recommendations are insightful, and deserving of attention
from policy makers.’
*Andrew Guzman, University of California, Berkeley, Law School*
This book makes it perfectly clear that a pro-competitive
environment is an important condition for further progress on the
road to development. The potential for improvement is even larger
if the competitive framework is not reserved to the national level
but extends to the regional dimension. The task is complex, and
errors cannot be excluded. This highly recommendable book shows how
to avoid them.’
*Andreas Heinemann, International Review of Intellectual Property
and Competition Law*
